Giants WR Kadarius Toney tweaks (other) hamstring, misses practice

Connor Hughes via Twitter

Oct 07, 2022 · 10:52 AM EDT

Per Connor, Kadarius Toney tweaked his hamstring on Thursday. It’s the other hamstring now, Brian Daboll says. So that’s why he’s not here & out again.

Related Players: Richie James, David Sills, Darius Slayton

Fantasy Impact:

The Giants have a bottom-five receiving group, if not the worst in the NFL, and Toney has been unable to be part of the solution. With Daniel Jones facing his own issues, Saquon Barkley may touch the ball 25-30 times in Week 5 against the Packers.

Giants WR Kenny Golladay (MCL) not expected to travel with team

Kenny Golladay's tenure with the New York Giants is taking another disappointing turn. The wideout suffered an MCL sprain in Sunday's win over the Bears in Week 4 and is not expected to travel with the team to London where they are scheduled to take on the Packers at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday, according to the NFL Network.

Related players: Kadarius Tony, Wan'Dale Robinson, David Sills, Richie James, Darius Slayton

Fantasy Impact:

The Giants desperately need the return of Toney and Robinson to the lineup and both are getting closer according to reports last week, but there is still no official word about their Week 5 status in London. That leaves James, Sills and Slayton as the team's top-three WRs as of now.

Giants WR Sterling Shepard tears ACL, out for year

Giants coach Brian Daboll tells reporters that WR Sterling Shepard has a torn ACL. His season is over.

Fantasy Impact:

With Toney and Robinson hurt, and Golladay seemingly in the doghouse, it only leaves James and Sills as the team's top targets. If the G-men don't look elsewhere, the Giants may have to put more trust in Toney and Golladay going forward. Robinson should return from a knee injury soon and he actually started in Week 1 before getting hurt. It's a situation to watch as one of these WRs will likely have to step up into a bigger fantasy role.

Giants WR Sterling Shepard (knee) expected to miss rest of season

ESPN

Sep 27, 2022 · 9:34 AM EDT

New York Giants wide receiver Sterling Shepard suffered what is believed to be a serious left knee injury, multiple sources told ESPN, after Shepard had initial tests following Monday night's game against the Dallas Cowboys.

The noncontact injury happened in the final minutes of New York's 23-16 loss to Dallas. A final diagnosis will come Tuesday morning, when Shepard undergoes more tests, but the fear is that his season is over.

Fantasy Impact:

With Robinson still out and Toney, Slayton and Golladay on the outside looking in, James and Sills look to be the team's top-two targets right now. Robinson is expected to return soon and could very well slide into a key role. He started for the G-men in Week 1. Unless the Giants look somewhere outside the team, it appears they may be forced to increase the roles of Toney, Slayton and/or Golladay.
